Miami Media School
For-profit College in Doral, FL. Six-year graduation rate 65%. Median 10-year earnings $28,918.
Median earnings ten years after entry come to $28,918, below what most undergraduate institutions return — the central fact to weigh against cost here. 65% graduate within six years, so most students who start here finish here. Borrowing stays contained, with median debt at graduation of $9,500.
Earnings: College Scorecard, median ten years after entry across students who received federal aid — completers and non-completers alike.

Academics
65% of students finish within six years, putting completion well above the national norm. Retention of 64% means a meaningful slice of each entering class does not return. The 6:1 student-faculty ratio is small enough that seminar-sized classes are the norm. This is a for-profit two-year institution. That is not disqualifying, but it does mean verifying accreditation, transferability of credits, and job-placement claims directly rather than trusting the category. At 107 undergraduates, expect a small, closely-held student body.
Financial Aid
IPEDS Student Financial Aid · 2023-24 · grant and loan rates against 107 degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates
Net price averages $29,190 annually, so cost is the first thing to weigh here. The gap between the $0–30k and $75–110k bands is narrow ($27,939 versus $34,583), meaning aid is not strongly need-weighted. Most students get help: 88% receive grants worth $4,726 on average. Borrowing is widespread: 75% take federal loans.
Entering first-year students
A different, smaller group than the rates above: full-time students in their first year of college anywhere. The grant series here also excludes the "other sources" counted in the all-undergraduate figure, so the two are not comparable.

Net price by family income
The same students as the headline above, limited to those who received Title IV federal aid — a narrower group, with a lower overall average. IPEDS publishes no combined figure across these bands, so they should not be averaged into one.

| $0–30k | $27,939 |
| $30–48k | $30,502 |
